You just got my heart pump pumpin'

Every time that you're here around me

Music flows again yeah

It took me a while to get ready today

I'm always so excited to meet you

My scent finds you before I do

So you can remember with your eyes shut

I'll follow wherever

You're so delicate, so in the bubble

You hide uh uh uh

Oh you make my heart melt away

You're a softie, like a cloud

Words can't quite explain

You got me oh oh

We're already

Far away

High up

Like that balloon

Have you right here

In a basket

Oh my baby

Sweet like bubble gum

Bouncing like playing ball

Take me higher

We’re gonna fly away

Sweet like bubble yum

So smooth, soft like a hug

Fly me further

Let’s go far away

You’re my favorite flavor

Bubble gum

Bubble Bubble Bubble Bubble Bubble Bubble

Bubble Bubble Bubble Gum

Keep chatting away like a chatterbox

Like I got nothing better to do

You fit in the palm of my hand yeah

A secret I only want for myself

All I know is I need this feeling

My radiance catches your eyes first yeah

So you can remember with your eyes shut

I'll follow wherever

You're so delicate, so in the bubble

You hide uh uh uh

Oh you make my heart melt away

You're a softie, like a cloud

Words can't quite explain

You got me oh oh

Sweet like bubble gum

Bouncing like playing ball

Take me higher

We’re gonna fly away

Sweet like bubble yum

So smooth, soft like a hug

Fly me further

Let’s go far away

So you can remember with your eyes shut

I'll follow wherever

You're so delicate, In the bubble

You hide uh uh uh

Oh you make my heart melt away

You're a softie, like a cloud

Words can't quite explain

You got me oh oh
